Hi all. Kathleen was following some links and ended up at the
Wikipedia article on moonbows:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moonbow
Confusingly, it says:
> Few places in the world frequently feature this phenomenon.
> Cumberland Falls[2], near Corbin, Kentucky, U.S.A. and Victoria
> Falls on the border between Zambia and Zimbabwe are widely known for
> moonbow occurrence. Also Durham, North Carolina and Waimea on
> Hawaii's Kauai Island.
>
Anybody have any idea where/why Durham? I did the usual web
searching, and all the references to moonbows in Durham are basically
cut/pastes of the Wiki article.
Most confusing.
